Working with mail folders
The iPhone (left) uses a familiar hierarchical folder structure for easy navigation, and it lets you move messages both from within the message and from the message list (see previous slide). The Droid (right) doesn't support subfolders, so you have access only to your top-level inbox plus the Drafts, Outbox, Trash, and Sent folders' contents. NitroDesk's $10 TouchDown app for the Droid does support Exchange folders, but it doesn't let you move e-mail among them.
